Hello guys, i have Acer Acpire 5 A515-55G-799C, it works really fine..
I have only one problem, and still can not solve it - i have two Samsung 55 tvs, and my laptop can not connect via wireless.
Its trying, and after few seconds it disconects. The only error i received is on the Tv screen - your laptop can not connect, try through mobile devise instead.
I have few other laptops - HP, LEnovo etc, there is no errors and they connect very fast.
Please advise if I need to replace some drivers, or there is something else i need to do to connect?

    Sorry. No. It's not the wireless Bluetooth functionality but the wireless Miracast functionality that's involved. However, inexpensive miracast USB adapters like shown below are readily available.  Jack E/NJ

    Sorry, I think the Samsung's require miracast capability for wireless. Jack E/NJ

    I checked the specs of Lenovo - and you are correct, it supports Bluetooth 4.1 wireless.
    So actualy I bought +1k eu laptop, and i am not able to connect to +1k eu TVs, because it has newer bluetooth standard??
